Wow, crazy.

Surprised it got resolved this quickly but also not surprised in that AC admitted to not being prepared for actual cancellations - their CEO went on TV and said they had no backup plan as they assumed that the gov't would force flight attendants back to work. That's stupid shit to admit on national TV.

Probably because that gig work was designed to undercut something that is an actual job/career.

Yea, those damned sexual predatory taxi drivers, how dare they

??? The fuck

1 in 5 business in Canada won’t last 6 months due to tariffs..

Carneyyyyyyyyy…. Carneyyyyyyyyy…

Since Carn took office tariffs have doubled or more with no response or support?

:lol

Surely all the people out there who are broke as fuck can support local business and pay 15-30% more than an Amazon,Walmart, etc.

I agree. As per that article, the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) is calling the feds to reduce the small business tax and provide a "tariff rebate" to businesses.

Carney's government is simply not doing anything in terms of financial support for small businesses across the country.

I support local business as much as I can now. -definitely see the impact of the tariffs on local businesses.

-went to a Mr. Sub to buy some sandwiches for lunch one day. -wanted to order a bottle of orange juice.

The owner said that he only has apple juice available because the Canadian-counter tariffs is making orange juice too expensive to import from the U.S.

25 percent Canadian counter-tariff on U.S. orange juice. Orange harvest in Florida has also decreased for the past two decades because of crop failure too. Canadian orange juice imports hit a two decade low.

https://www.ctvnews.ca/world/trumps-...sumers%20alike.

Imagine that. I cannot even order orange juice at Mr. Sub because of that idiot in the White House!

:facepalm:

Carney needs to make sure the negotiating team gets the best trade agreement possible from the U.S.

However, this is 100 percent the fault of that fat fuck in the White House. The bully started this trade war!

Carney's government gets some blame for not providing any financial support for small businesses during this trade war though.

So Trump is the one doling out the tariffs, and you're blaming Carney for the increasing tariffs?

How is that different from Trump blaming Ukraine / Zelensky for not ending the war? or more simply speaking, how is that different from blaming a girl for not covering herself from head to toe to prevent a pervert from getting sexually aroused and rape her?

That owner and the CTV article are both misleading though - OJ is still available at reasonable prices, just not the American variety.

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/orang...nada-1.7613588

tl;dr - orange juice supply globally is down due to bad harvests so overall prices are up (not tariff related) but non-US OJ is still available at much lower prices than US OJ (due partly to tariffs).

That owner should just shop around and switch brands and he'd have OJ back on the shelves.

This is a good read for Honda:

TLDR: The VPD are full of shit and have been cooking for books for a minute now, using online media to perpetuate a false narrative of danger in this city as a political means.

I already posted endless articles from sources across the country showing rise in violent crimes and repeat offenders. Don’t need to waste more time digging all those back up.

Sit back and do -nothing-

Great strategy for the greatest businessman Canada has ever seen :lol

As the article even says, relief comes internally. Following the liberal line of sitting in back rooms and “hoping for the best” doesn’t create relief for these businesses. The article outlined what could alleviate the condition.

If you work for a small business that is dependant on the movement of goods, or even in the restaurant/service industry, things are going to get much worse going forward.

Man, even the radical left wing media is turning on Carney now:

https://www.thebeaverton.com/2025/08...imultaneously/

Maybe you Conservatards were right and we should have elected a Liberal Arts undergrad instead to run the country.

https://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/la..._2014-2023.pdf

Violent offense and “other” criminal code offenses which include weapons offenses have gone up or stayed stagnant year over year since 2014 throughout the entire province. Provincial data, from the govt.

Not really a stretch to extrapolate that in city centres.

Also, there’s plenty of evidence that increasingly, property crime goes unreported due to nothing coming of reports. Petty crime and theft etc. is likely higher than reported given people have just given up trying to retrieve property.

What was Carney's response to Trump's 35% tariffs? Absolutely nothing. Canada made concession after concession and achieved nothing. Yikes, bro.

Repeat, known offender already wanted on outstanding warrants breaks into man’s home

Man who’s home it was gets multiple charges :lol

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toron...ence-1.7614690

Literal satire, a known criminal breaks into your home in the middle of the night and YOU get charged :lol

Such a fucking joke.

If this person killed your family member, AT MOST they’d spend 10 years in jail, even as a heinous repeat offender. You injure the person who broke into your house, multiple charges, lose your job and ruin your life?

:lol

Carnada

WTF????

What happened to a person's right to self defence in Canada? You would think using some sort of weapon to defend your life, your family, and your home from a intruder would be considered "reasonable force" under Canadian law, right?

It that motherfucker broke into a person's home in the U.S, I think that a home owner would just grab his/her handgun, assault rifle, and shoot the bastard. Gun owner rights under the American constitution! :gun:

Link directly from the article posted about predicting your article being used to push an agenda without knowing all the facts lol.

I don’t disagree that it seems the charges shouldn’t exist.
That said, did he stab the guy once, twice, or thirty times. Did he shank an unconscious man over and over? The latter means charges could be deemed reasonable consistent with the laws we’ve had for decades. Carney obviously is to blame though, or Trudeau.

I’m sure the first thought when a random stranger is in your home with intent to cause harm is restraint.

So he doesn’t stab the guy, a single baseball bat to the head and the guys a veggie, again, almost certainly the homeowners life is ruined.

If you’ve got cameras in your home, you’d better make sure you barricade yourself in a room and shoot that footage out to as many people as humanly possible prior to being “arrested” because you’ll be the guilty until proven innocent party.

A random break-in in the middle of the night, the intent is nothing but harm to the occupants.

Damn bro, you're so edgy.

I agree with Honda, you're asking a lot out of a person in mid-sleep, middle of the night to ascertain what or whatnot is a reasonable amount of force on a guy standing in your bedroom.

Especially if his cock is in his hand.

I love it when you only choose to selectively look at things.

It is estimated that up to 90% of goods exported from Canada can be CUSMA compliant. In the past, only ~40% of the goods exported to the US are covered by CUSMA, but that has increased to over 50% since the tariffs were announced.

There are costs to businesses to get their good CUSMA-certified, which is why some businesses had previously chosen to not go through with the certification process in the past bcos the tariffs were low enough that businesses deemed paying for those low tariffs were the cheaper and easier option. Now that it is no longer the case, businesses will have to adjust.

Most analysts agree that Carney's preferred solution is to negotiate some decent (trade) terms under a renewed CUSMA, and that seems to be happening. Engaging in on-going trade talks isn't doing nothing, but everyone knows that the problem with trade talk negotiations is -- Trump and the US have little intention to negotiate in good faith. So how do you negotiate with a party like that? And how would *you* (or your PP) negotiate with a party like that?

If Canada had made concession after concession as you claim, our supply chain management system would already have been dismantled and Quebec farmers up in arms, and our auto manufacturing, steel and aluminum, and soft wood lumber sectors would already have all folded.

Like I said, I don’t disagree that if someone walks into your house with ill intent you should be able to dismember them with a handmade Japanese chefs knife, but it’s never been the case here.
Let’s not act like we haven’t heard the stories of people breaking into someone’s house and slipping on a wet floor and suing (and winning) in the states.
I’m glad I’ve got a rez dog.
